I recently found his fingerprint algorithm and wrote a utility that uses it to find duplicate MIPS code for decompilation[0] and build unique identifiers that can be used to find duplicates without sharing any potentially copyrighted data[1].
This replaced some O(n²) searches through ASCII text, reducing search time from dozens of seconds to fractions of a second.
